i have a 69 fastback 390cid with an fmx tranny, i have a fairly generic 650cfm holley carb that need to be rebuilt. i am a poor college student. i need a good 4bbl carb for cheap. any suggestions? companies? i also need to find a complete wiring harness from solenoid to voltage regulator to alternator. its butchered. and my brakes need to be rebuilt completely AND(as if thats not enough) i need a new master cylinder. i love this car and i hhave spent a lot of time effort and money on it, but im starting to get depressed. my uncle wants to trade me a 72 chevelle 350. all it needs is a front fender and a little body work. i dont want to part with my car...what would you guys do?

i have tons of catalogs. jegs summit npd calmustang etc. at least 20 or so. my carb needs to be rebuilt and its gonna cost me 300 bucks. which is ridiculous i know. the carb only cost me 235, so im just gonna get something else for the stang. oh and now my front tranny seal is out, and all my tranny fluid is on my driveway. great. but yeah im keeping it for now and probably for a while. ive had this car for 5 years now and i used to say id never get rid of it, but as you get oldr things change huh? i was 12 when i got it now im 17 but im waaay to attached to this car to just let it go. thanks for the help guys.

$300 to rebuild the carb? Dang, send it to me I'll do it for half that... Your getting hosed at $300. It's not that hard to do and the Holley kit is about $40 for the basic kit... BTW, if you do decide to rebuild it yourself or you take it to somebody, make sure they/you use a Holley brand kit.

I have a ton of carb rebuild links/tech on my site I'll supply a few if interested.
